Sermon 10/9/2011 - Mt. 2 - Jesus Worshipers

Chapter 2 of Matthew is about humanity's response to Jesus.  The right response is represented by the Wise Men.  God reveals himself to them first through nature, then through scripture, and finally in the presence of Jesus himself.  And when they see him, they worship him.  It's a picture of right faith.

Sermon 10/2/2011 - Mt. 1 - the Christ Child
